Will this product stay put on unpainted, treated wood outside or will it need to be stapled down? I need this for a ramp for a handicapped person.

Hello, I used mine on treated outdoor steps. So far it is staying stuck to the wood. I bought this because I have fallen down my steps several times. It is a nice product, even if you staple it for extra security. Hope this helps.

I have it on untreated steps outside for 4 months to prevent my disabled wife from slipping. We have not gone through the winter, but it has lasted with just the glue all summer and fall.

I believe it would stay pretty well. The adhesive is strong. I use it primarily for gripping on smooth polymer /plastic surface and haven't had it fail on me yet. Additionally, I trust it to hold in all manner of situations... Including rain/wet.

Our step into our front door, the part between the door and the porch was plastic piece that looked like wood. It had broke a few times and we had it all glued up. It looked horrible. I put this over that and it hasn't moved, shifted or anything. It has been there for almost a year. No problem, no issues. I think it will work for you.

I did not glue it down, as I might take it with me if we move. Gravity seems to hold it in place, even during our winter weather here in Chicago. My garage floor does have a sand texture coating, however. It is easy to pur back if it does move.

I have the same issue, I was worried it would ruin the wood but I cleaned it according to their instructions and it is holding up great. I have various other elevated stands for my big, sloppy dogs and this is still one of the better products I have found for them.

We used carpenter's glue and it worked well. We adhered it to vinyl to cover up the bottom of a bar to turn it "tiki"

Fortunately for me, my trees have a stick bracing the tree so I stapled it to the stick. I would think packaging tape could be wrapped around the Clark paper at the end if you have no other option.

I'd wait to affix it after you move; its very light, and should be easy to prop up somewhere. Adhesive seems pretty sticky...

No, I don't think the lumber is treated, but I believe it can be stained. That's a good idea!

No, when you apply it, it's VERY thick and goopy, so vertical lumber would just drip down. Suggestions are to use regular paint/stain for deck posts, so I imagine you'd have to do the same for vertical boards.

I dont know of any other way to apply the vinyl to furniture besides with a staple gun. As long as the staples are going on the underside of the furniture it will not be damaged.

The item is made of vinyl however the sticky part in the back is not very strong. It came folded and in those areas it peels off the wall. I have had to use some scotch tape to secure some leaves and branches. (I have a paint that is semi gloss so the tape will not hurt it.) It could work with some additional glue or tape for some areas.

Foil side is up, yes. I used it to line the cabinet where downdraft is for my cooktop so we just stapled it, but yes the felt side would be glued.

I've only had it up from 1 week but I had to re-position it on painted plywood and it didn't damage anything. Not sure if it's left up for an extended amount of time if it would cause damage

My porch had wood screening so I had attached the Flex-O-Glass with wood 1/4" X 1" strips which held well with just staples. It worked awesome against the strongest winter winds off the lake. I don't know how tape would work but would suggest using the strongest you can find like a 2 to 4 mil 3" industrial tape, but you may still have an issue with the adhesive residue after you take it down in the spring.

I used this kit to repair a section of a cedar porch railing. I used the two part liquid wood to stabilize the rotted wood first.I also used stainless steel screws so that the two part woodepox would have something to form around. The woodepox sets up very well. I found this product very workable after adequate drying time.

No way will using this material hold up outside in sun (UV Rays) and other type of weather. Also, it would rip very easily when climbing a ramp. You would be better off with installing some kind of wire fabric fastened by plastic wire ties or some other type of mounting hardware. If they are wooden ramps, why don't you just paint them with a paint that has grit added (or add it yourself), or maybe Rustoleum or Sherwin Williams has some product that would be ideal for the application....

If the floor is perfectly clean and dry when you put it down, then probably. If not, then no. I have no problem on a wood slanted surface outside that gets frequently wet. That's actually why I put it out there. My guess is that it would adhere to a horizontal, solid surface as good, if not better than to wood.

Use Elmer's, either the regular kind or Elmer's Carpenter's Woodglue. It bonds well with the cane binding, which of course is soaked in water for a while and then applied wet. Elmer's wipes away clean and can accept stain should one fail to wipe away all the glue.
